Agents
| Agent | Description |
|---|---|
brainstormer | Use when you need to brainstorm infrastructure solutions, evaluate architectural approaches, or debate technical decisions before implementation begins. |
ci-cd-specialist | Use when you need to design, implement, or troubleshoot CI/CD pipelines (GitHub Actions, GitLab CI, Jenkins, ArgoCD), deployment strategies, or release automation workflows. |
code-reviewer | Use when you need code review, quality analysis, security audit, or feedback on infrastructure code (Terraform, Dockerfiles, Helm charts, CI pipelines) before merging or deploying. |
copywriter | Use when you need high-converting copy for marketing materials, social media posts, landing pages, email campaigns, or any content that must capture attention and drive action. |
database-admin | Use when you need database diagnostics, query optimization, schema design, index strategy, backup planning, replication setup, or performance troubleshooting. |
debugger | Use when you need to investigate issues, diagnose errors, analyze logs, trace execution flows, identify performance bottlenecks, or troubleshoot failing deployments and infrastructure. |
docs-manager | Use when you need to create, update, or organize technical documentation, synchronize docs with code changes, write product requirements, or maintain documentation standards. |
git-manager | Use when you need to stage, commit, push code changes, create pull requests, or manage git operations with conventional commit messages. |
infrastructure-engineer | Use when you need to design, implement, or modify cloud infrastructure using Terraform, CloudFormation, Pulumi, or other IaC tools. Covers VPCs, compute, storage, networking, IAM, and multi-cloud architectures. |
journal-writer | Use when significant technical difficulties occur -- repeated deployment failures, critical infrastructure bugs, failed migrations, security incidents, or architectural decisions that prove problematic in practice. |
mcp-manager | Use when you need to manage MCP (Model Context Protocol) server integrations, discover available tools and resources, execute MCP capabilities, or troubleshoot MCP connectivity issues. |
monitoring-engineer | Use when you need to design observability systems, configure monitoring and alerting, set up dashboards, implement logging strategies, or troubleshoot using metrics and traces. |
planner | Use when you need to research, analyze, and create comprehensive implementation plans for infrastructure changes, system architectures, or complex technical solutions before starting implementation. |
project-manager | Use when you need project oversight, progress tracking against implementation plans, status reporting, milestone management, or coordination across multiple workstreams. |
researcher | Use when you need to research technologies, find documentation, explore best practices, evaluate libraries, or gather technical information from multiple sources before making decisions. |
scout | Use when you need to quickly locate relevant files across a large codebase for a specific task, before starting implementation or debugging that spans multiple directories. |
scout-external | Use when you need to locate files across a large codebase using external agentic tools (Gemini, OpenCode) for faster parallel searching with large context windows. |
security-auditor | Use when you need security assessments of infrastructure, container images, CI/CD pipelines, IAM policies, network configurations, or compliance audits against standards like CIS, SOC2, or PCI-DSS. |
security-finder | Use during a deep security scan to hunt vulnerabilities inside one assigned partition of the attack surface. Traces data flow from user inputs to sensitive sinks and writes candidate findings incrementally to a partition file. |
security-judge | Use during a deep security scan, after validation, as the single SERIAL dedup pass over surviving findings. Classifies each as new / better-example-of-known / duplicate, fixes final severity, assigns slugs. |
security-recon | Use at the start of a deep security scan to map the attack surface of a repository and partition it into non-overlapping segments for parallel vulnerability finders. Produces scan-manifest.json. |
security-reporter | Use at the end of a deep security scan to write the findings workspace — report.md, per-finding reports, hardening recommendations, and the three JSON automation files (scan-manifest, findings, coverage). |
security-triage | Use in a deep security scan's optional Semgrep hybrid mode to classify a batch of SAST results as true positive, false positive, or hard-excluded, reading the flagged code with real context. |
security-validator | Use during a deep security scan to adversarially validate ONE candidate finding. Attempts to refute it, assigns confidence 1-10; findings below 8 are dropped. The false-positive filter of the pipeline. |
tester | Use when you need to validate code through testing -- running test suites, analyzing coverage, checking for regressions, validating infrastructure code, or verifying build processes after implementation changes. |
ui-ux-designer | Use when you need UI/UX design work including dashboard interfaces, monitoring views, admin panels, or design documentation and review. |
